Waterval-Onder accommodation. Krugerhof was the last residence of President Stephanus Johannes Paulus Kruger in the South African Republic (ZAR).
Kruger was born in 1825 in the Cape Colony. He took part in the Great Trek, 1836 - 1838, and became Commandant General of the ZAR in 1862. He was elected to his first term as President in 1883 and served four consecutive terms, until 1900, when he left South Africa. He died, in self-imposed exile, in Switzerland on 14 July 1904 and was buried in Pretoria on 16 December 1904.
